Title of Report Proposal: Failure of Drainage System
Date of Submission: 27 JULY 2010

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background Information
Drainage is a system of pipes and passages that take away water or waste liquid from an area. According to Cambridge Learner's Dictionary drainage is the system of water or waste liquids flowing away from somewhere into the ground or down pipe. Drainage Systems include areas of the land surface that contribute flow to particular edges and points on the Hydro Network. Thus, DRAINAGE is VERY! VERY! IMPORTANT, both in relation to road pavement construction, flood control during large or infrequence storm and maintenance. With a rural road network drainage of the road pavement will mostly be just down to the maintenance of ditches adjacent to the highway, and ensuring that all culvert are free flowing, not complicated is it, but it is surprising how often these simple maintenance procedures are neglected. A good drainage system is important because it will prevent from flooding, landslide, and the environmental effect.
The purpose of this study is to know about the proper drainage system and the effect that could happen if the drainage not to be setup in the proper way. Annually inspections and clean drainage facilities as needed to maintain appropriate records. This information should be used to determine problem areas that may need to be checked more often. This study also to identify the reason of the failure of drainage system and also how to solve the problem. The main reason it happened is the low qualities of material, insufficient of failure of drainage system and the not uniform maintenance's.
1.2 Objective of the Study.
1. To investigate the causes that lead to drainage system failure.
2. To examine the best way to manage the drainage system.

1.3 Research Question(s).
The main research questions of this study are:
1. What is the factor that causes failure of drainage system?
2. What is the best way to manage the drainage system?
1.4 Definition of Key Terms.
Drainage is the natural or artificial removal of surface and sub-surface water from an area. This system wills flowing the water or waste liquid from somewhere into the ground or down pipes. There have had two types of drainage, which is, surface drainage and subsurface drainage. There a few effects of the failure drainage system, such as flooding, landslides and environmental effects.

Title: An expert system to evaluate the sensitivity of urban areas to the functioning failure of storm drainage networks.
Author: A. Karnib a,*, J. Al-Hajjar b, D. Boissier c
Urban Water 4 (2002) 43–51
This journal shows that many local authorities have invested in drainage network upgrading project. Including to improving the efficiency of drainage networks. Based on MacMurray & Barnett, 1996, the designed that had been build 20-40 years ago can capable to carry only 5 years flow. Recently, there is worldwide trend towards extending the urban drainage analysis to major storms with surface flooding happening for 50-year storms. In the case of flooding, damage costs can be very high to do maintenance work. Many upgrading and alternatives can be generated.

Title: Landslides and sediment delivery to a drainage system: Observation from Hong Kong.
Author: M.R. Peart, K.Y.Ng, and D.D.Zhang
Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, Volume 25, issue 5, August 2005, Pages 821-836
The article show the sediment from a landslide had courses the failure of drainage system thus, resulting the flood. This happened when, Landslides may influence sediment production in small upland previous drainage basins by the direct delivery of material to the channel, subsequent fluvial action on materials exposed in debris trails and erosion as the previous termfailurenext term moves down slope, sometimes to become channelized. Arcading to Franks, 1999, Characteristics of some rainfall-induced landslides on natural slopes. Thus, the proper design of slope might less the number of failure drainage system.

Author: D. Francois, A. Jullien, J.P. Kerzreho and L. Chateau
Journal of Waste Management, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2009, Pages 1076-1083
This article analyzed on the alternative materials used in road construction, which in turn determine the use of different means and study methods. The evolution of the material status is described through its various preparation stages prior to use. The research describe about general information of materials, structure and external factors of the road.
